How to excersize your creativity when you have nothing to do

Alright, let's say you are in some sort of situation or place and either feel you have nothing to do or are just bored, you can "excersize" your creativity. First of all, look for something that catches your eye. It could be furniture, architecture, etc. Now you've seen it, think of how you could recreate it in Lego Bricks, you don't really need a pile of bricks in front of you, just use your mind. It doesn't matter if you are thinking in terms of Minifig scale or real life scale, just as l

How to get Rock Raiders to work on VMWare Fusion

Thought on Animal and Human DNA exchanging

Incase you don't have enough time to read or want as much info as possible I created a short and long version; SHORT; Can an animal's Genetic code/DNA be put into a Human? LONG; Some time ago, I found out in a class about how scientists were able to make a Human ear grow on the back of a Mouse. This got me thinking; If we can implement Human DNA (in that case, the DNA for the ears) into an animal, then surely it would be possible to do it the other way around; Implementing

How to become a gold member (the other way)

1. Create an account on RRU and make a few posts, leave your account for 1 year 2. A year later return and you might find yourself a Silver Member 3.

The Lego Movie; Has it lost it's magic?

This Blog post is about two of my recent thoughts on TLM. Do note that if you haven't seen TLM (which, I would be surprised if you didn't) then be careful, because THE FOLLOWING CONTAINS SPOILERS FOR TLM. So, with that noted, here are my thoughts: I think TLM has began to become a bore. People have seen it around once or twice (maybe even three times if you have any siblings wanting to watch it for the second or third time only to notice when the Movie ends that there is a skeleton wea

The Gaben parable

If 'The Stanley Parable's' protagonist was replaced by Gabe Newell you would get this narration: "Wait a second... ...Did I just see... ...No, thats not possible, I can't believe it. How did I not notice it sooner? You're not Stanley. You're Gabe Newell. *sighs twice* I can't believe I was so mistaken. This is why you've been able to make correct and incorrect choices about Half-Life 3. You may have noticed that this room has begun to deteriorate as a result of Half Life 3 not being release

I'm being watched

My friend and I where going by our normal business (if normal meant me on the RRU Minecraft server whilst my friend begins writing down the lyrics to Harry101uk's Portal songs) when my friend started panicking. He received an email that lead to this: http://pastebin.com/2mN1MZBn Apparently my private 'conversation' on Steam was now leaked. The one thing that surprised me was that the person decided to add ' [REDACTED] ' over my name (apart from the first sentence, which was left with m

The unnessessary blog post about how to make toast in secondary school/high school

Ever get annoyed by the fact when you arrive at school you either; "Accidentally" brought butter or forgot the ham and cheese then there is a way you can still make the next best thing (well, 'next best thing' for some people); Toast! Here is the easiest way to make toast during school time, wether its lunchtime or that you happen to be in a science classroom at time of realisation; 1. Find a science classroom (unless you already are in one), chemistry will do. 2. Locate the nearest bu

RRU's 6th Anniversary in a Nutshell

This is for all those people out there who didn't manage to either arrive in time or didn't have a chance to celebrate the 6th Anniversary of Rock Raiders United. So for those who want an explanation of what happened here it is in a nutshell: 1. When there was only two minutes left people counted down the minutes 2. When it came around to 3 'o clock the ShoutBox was filled with colourful balls like this: 3. The colourful balls and flashy balls began to become spammed 4. Shout Box br

The entry that never made it

Very recently I found out about Drill Master's RRU music sign-up and I sent him a PM to join. ApparentlyI was too late and I didn't get in. Anyways, I just made a piece of music in the past half hour and the outcome is this: RRU Composition #01.m4a It was entirely made using no Pre-made sounds and thus is the first of my songs that I fully hand-played. At a few times the Violins start to fall out of sync but it doesn't matter. Enjoy my entry that never will make it. Oh, and Drill Master, if y

My computerfast begins

Right, first off 'ComputerFast' is NOT a word if you are wondering. Second I decided to not do this as a Profile Feed because it would be too long. And three... Urm.... I'll just explain... Starting tomorrow (Friday 14th March 2014) I will not be attending my computer. Lately I have been having troubles in school (not to do with bullying) and my only guess is because of how much time I spend on my computer. This 'Abandoning computer thing' will last until I give up, so if you are going to ask

Film music+Game music and a special sneak peek

Hey everyone, I have some new music, some for the TUa Project, some for my Game project and an extra special piece for an upcoming video for YouTube. But I have something important to say first; I am sorry I posted this up again, especially since it is a pain to upload the music, but I really wanted to let you know that (like I have already mentioned in a Profile Feed post) I am working on something secret by myself. Of course you might be taking this in as a stupid excuse, if so then I defian

Voice stuff for Game project

For the first time I am actually making progress on a project I post up about! Anyway, This was made into a blog just so I could put a voice clip inside... If you have been flicking through my 'Blender Stuff' gallery you may have found this...: A character for my not-so-going-to-work-out YouTube series which I apparently dumped immediately... Especially since I never (and still haven't) gotten permission from the Office Drones model creator HJMediaStudios. Also I hadn't gotten

A little notification for future blogs

Well, I am back with a new motto; "Aye up! Heads up!" (Meaning 'keep a look out for strange things in the near future). Anyway, I have just received a physical PC/Mac edition of Valve's highly astounding (to me) Portal 2, a physics game originally used to show the usage of portals. I had a look over YouTube to see if anyone had made any reviews of Portal 2 and I found out about Zero Punctuation at the time. I watched Zero Punctuation's review on Portal 2, expecting it to be all about Portal 2,

Taste of Music

Todays topic, music... Music is like... like... how do I start? It is like a book, it can be good, exciting and joyful at some points but then there are the bad parts of the song. It might be fast, slow or just right. Every one has a different taste. Say someone liked Orchestra (such as me) and someone else likes rock, someone likes techy noises in music, etc... Music allows the feel of happiness, sadness, all different emotions to come to the mind. It doesn't even matter if the music is a n

Leave or not?

Yep. A recent blog post by McJobless has noted my stupidity within my first posts: Linking to a website when talking about someone who had died, posting sound AVI's in random topics... *sigh* Then I came up with ideas (many of them were pretty stupid after all) which I posted up here. Later I realised there was a topic for project discussion, finding this out lead to many slaps on the forehead. Now I am thinking... Should I leave or not? It is my choice (until I get banned from RRU) to do so o
